Fundraising for Voices of Hope

Dunedin, Otago

Kia ora I'm Maddy, I'm in my second year of studying Law, Spanish and Psychology at the University of Otago. I am going to attempt to swim 1km in ice water to raise money for mental health. I will be competing at the NZ Ice Swimming Championships in July, where I will be swimming in water under 5 degrees. All the money I raise will be going to an amazing mental health charity called Voices of Hope.

You are probably thinking this girl is crazy, why would she want to do something like this? Isn't Dunedin cold enough for her? If you want to find out why I am going this and more about my personal story, please click the link below:
